Description
THE LOVE LEABHAR GAEILGE IRISH LANGUAGE BOOK OF THE YEAR 2019 – SHORTLISTED
Tá iomrá ar Ghráinne Ní Mháille i seanchas na hÉireann, ach nochtann gné eile den bhanlaoch san úrscéal seo. Cuirtear i láthair í ina cruth daonna anseo, fuil agus feoil uirthi. Feictear croí agus anam an bhanlaoich, mar chéile agus mar mháthair, agus na bealaí inar mhúnlaigh an grá, an chrógacht agus an chalaois a saol eachtrúil.
Gráinne Ní Mháille (Grace O’Malley) is renowned in Irish folklore for her feats, but here a different aspect of this strong and heroic woman is revealed. Her personal story, her emotions as a wife and a mother, and her more human side are brought to life by the skilled pen of Siobhán Parkinson. Love, bravery and deceit all helped shape her character, as she struggled to preserve her family’s heritage during turbulent times in Ireland and at the Tudor Court.
